How To Make Dough For Handmade Jewelry & Crafts Making

It’s been long I have shared any of my dough crafts or jewelry. The reason behind this is shortage of time. I am more busy with my online work as well as business projects now, So handmade work is a bit ignored now. I miss past blogging days, I remember one of my dough making tutorial blog post
went viral & got huge appreciation by my dear readers worldwide.
That article pinned more than two thousand times. Few days back someone
ask me about homemade dough & it’s crafts. So I thought I should try
this again. Here today I am sharing How To Make Dough For Handmade Jewelry & Crafts Making. I hope you will find it interesting.

How To Make Dough For Handmade Jewelry & Crafts Making

A
friend asked me to teach her dough making & it’s crafts. As I was
already missing some handmade crafting so I did it. This is the recipe
of handmade dough making.

Recipe of homemade crafts dough :

You will need any transparent glue, Vaseline, Lemon juice & all purpose flour for making this dough.Step One –

Filter one cup flour in any bowl or plate. Add almost 3 table spoons
of white glue. Add One table spoon Vaseline & One table spoon lemon
juice.Mix
all together & knead well. In start you will think your dough is
not gonna make as it might be hard & not mixing well together. You
need to knead more & if its still rough add some more glue until it
gets smooth. DO NOT MIX WATER ANYWAY. The whole thing
is kneading well with hands. You can put it in your microwave oven for 1
minute at lowest temperature. It will dry your dough completely if
there is any water moisture in it. DO NOT HEAT MORE THAN A MINUTE.
Grease any plastic bag with Vaseline & save the dough in it. You
will save this in any air tight jar & can use it for one month
easily. This will not get dry soon if in air tight jar.

See how smooth it looks. Now its ready for making any crafts, jewelry or ornaments.

After making the dough I was going to teach my friend how to make
flowers & other decorative items with dough But guess what happened?

I forgot how to make dough flowers. Strange? Yeah it is.
Then I google it “Dough flowers making” I was so happy & surprised
to see dough flowers making tutorials on the first page of Google by
Creative Khadija. Isn’t it strange yet funny that I was learning via
Google but from me. Haha. So I check my blog archives via Google &
got it how I made these flowers in past.

Here
are dough flowers now, Some of these are made by me & some are by
my student friend. These are not so neat & perfect as I had no
practice & my student was also new to this thing. So we just
experiment making these flowers.So in a few days, Me & my student come up with these little dough thingies.
You can also add colors to your dough when it’s soft. Otherwise you
can paint it. Dough flour was pure white but after getting dry this
turned off white. You can paint it or spray paint it. For mixing colors
in the dough, You can add any acrylic paints or fabric paints in it.
Water based paints will not work well. Use any fabric paints please.
Otherwise your dough creation might caught by fungus later.Are you excited to see my next blog post in which I will be
sharing my craft or decore with these dough flowers? Wait for my next
post then. I have a very cool & easy decoration idea for you
friends.

You can also have a look at my previous dough & crafts creations.

In case if your dough making experiment went wrong & there is a
lump. Don’t worry & make something out of the trash lump. I made
this paper weight of the dough when it turned dry in my cupboard once & later I found it, I design it. Enjoy the tutorial.

I hope you will find my today’s blog post useful for dough & clay
crafts. Be sure to check these tutorials from archives. Be sure to
Share this post on your social media. Have a great day.
Thanks
